    Anyone know Lake Wawasee?

    I have a club tournament a week from tomorrow, I was going to pre-fish this weekend. I have fished it at night the last 3 years, but I have never fished it during the day. Anyone have any suggestion for early spring?

    were are you launching?
    If you are launching at the syracuse ramp when you come out of the channel fish the drop off just of the flat wich runs all the way tyo you'r left out about 200 yds or so watch the depth finder and just when it starts to drop fish there and of to the east look for remnants of last years weed patches especially.
    also try the point they call the dog pecker I havent fished it yet this year so I cant help ya on lure selection.

    Thanks, I am launching out of the DNR ramp on Wawasee. I don't know where the Syracuse ramp is. I have only been on it once during a night tournament. Which way do I go after I go through the tunnel form Wawasee. I was planning on fishing a jerkbait (rogue or husky jerk) and then slow-rolling a spinnerbait or a rat-l-trap. I figured the fish would be off the shore any color suggestions?

    Try the chanel's in Johnson bay. Picked up a few nice one's a week ago. Husky Jerk silver n black. Had a freind pick up 2 over 3lbs on Traps in 10 to15 feet of water out in the middle of the lake. Good luck. Hope for lighter winds than we have had

    I am no Pro on this lake but have fished it several time's. This time of year your best bet would be the channel's. This lake has plenty of them all around the lake. This time of the year most of the tournamnet's are won back in China Gardens. If you don't know where that is just let me know and I will e-mail you. This should get you a limit. For the biggest fish think deep points and drop off's. Good Luck!
